Default Hard Starting
Dad is original owner of a 1990 200 Turbo Quattro. For the longest time it has been a "hard starter", requiring quite a bit of cranking, but then finally engages. Any ideas?

it could be electrical(bad distributor cap/plug wires) and/or fuel pressure/clogged injector or even vacuum leaks can cause hard starting
